@austinw It stayed at zero forever. I'll see if I can find that post.

RE: OVA Import Hangs at 0%
Well, I'm back. I imported all the VMs and they have been running fine.Upgraded to 8.2. Went to test the restore of a VM post-backup and it failed to import, stuck at 0. This was a VM backed up by XO, so I'm perplexed.

RE: OVA Import Hangs at 0%
As a last ditch effort, I installed XCP 8.2.0 instead of 8.2.1 and it worked! At this point I'll just import all VMs and then upgrade to 8.2.1.
Wish I could share an actual resolution, but I'm on a deadline so it's the best I've got!

RE: OVA Import Hangs at 0%
@austinw I used the esxi ovf tool to export the VMs. Even if the tool was the issue, I wouldn't think VirtualBox exports would have the same result.

RE: OVA Import Hangs at 0%
@Danp Nothing in the logs. Watched them and kicked off an upload, nothing was logged against it. I have a few exported VMs, tried another still didn't work. Loaded it into VirtualBox, booted fine, exported, again same thing just hangs at import.
I may just have to try and build a VM and do the import, see if it fails, and share that with you. That won't really be 1 to 1 with what we're doing here though.

RE: OVA Import Hangs at 0%
@Danp Thanks. I'll check that out.
I'll see if I can generate a VM that I can share. I also noticed during the import task, I see a lot of
XO user authentication
with a status of interrupted. Not sure if that's related. -
RE: OVA Import Hangs at 0%
@Danp esxi 7.0. Unfortunately I cannot. I did import the OVA into Virtualbox and export again just to see if that made a difference, but unfortunately that did not.
Is there logging somewhere I'm overlooking?

OVA Import Hangs at 0%
Trying to import an OVA that was exported from esxi. I've tried both via XO and XOA. Each time I import the VM import just hangs at 0% for hours.
Extracted the OVA, tried to import just the disk, same issue. I saw a forum post saying this was related to a recent commit, I tried rolling back to the suggested commit and still have issues. Leading me to think it's not the same issue. (https://xcp-ng.org/forum/topic/8627/importing-vm-from-vmware-esxi-fails/6)
Copied the OVA to the XCP host, ran
xe vm-import filename=import.va
and received the error:The VM could not be imported because the XVA file is invalid: an unexpected file was encountered.
filename_expected: ova.xml
filename_found: import.ovfUnfortunately the direct import from esxi is not applicable so I need to be able to import a few OVAs manually.
